Transformers 3 Now Officially Has A Story

Michael Bay makes the official announcement.


No Caption Provided

Good news or bad news?  Transformers 3 is officially coming to a theater near you July 1, 2011 (changed from 2012).  I will be honest and say that I have yet to watch Transformers 2.  Not that I didn't want to.  I was on vacation when it was released then was trying to catch up on things when I got back home.  I'm waiting for the Blu-ray.  Michael Bay made the following statement on his official blog:

Well its official: We have a great Transformers 3 story. The release date is now July 1st 2011. Not 2012.

Today is Day One. This morning started with an ILM meeting for five hours in San Francisco. Currently I'm flying with writer Ehren Kruger to Rhode Island to talk to Hasbro about new characters.

P.S. Megan Fox, welcome back. I promise no alien robots will harm you in any way during the production of this motion picture. Please consult your Physician when working under my direction because some side effects can occur, such as mild dizziness, intense nausea, suicidal tendencies, depression, minor chest hair growth, random internal hemorrhaging and inability to sleep. As some directors may be hazardous to your health, please consult your Doctor to determine if this is right for you.


You might be aware that there's been a bit of tension between Bay and Fox lately.  She referred to Bay wanting to direct like Napoleon or Hitler.  This prompted several of his crew to sound off about her diva-like behavior on set.  We'll see if she returns for the third film.

" I hope we get some Decepticons in this one with blatantly racist Mexican accents!  They'll spend the whole movie stealing Autobot rims, putting them on cinder blocks, try to impregnate the white girls (Megan Fox this mean's you!), and then they'll breed the A-bots out of existance.    We'll call them MEXI-MECHS!!! "

That would be great especially after what they did to Jazz in 1 and Mudflap and his even dumber not worth remember twin. yes in the cartoon we all knew Jazz was black. Heck his up grade was a bigger sound system. But come on Fo'Sizzle I heard that and I wanted to shoot myself in the ears. Bay ruins Series and Events, Look at what he did to Pearl Harbor. He made an epic battle and stupid as all could be Love Story. Wait thats what he did with Transformers...I catching a theme.

" For movies that are based on a toy line I'd say they are pretty phenomenal. Both of them.  No one can really diss the movies as they aren't meant to be anything other than action flicks with a tint of comedy and romance. If Bay keeps makin' em, I'll keep paying to see them. There's no denying that they are entertaining. "

And your wrong. The movie was based on the cartoon......Are you lacking in some kinda thought process to say other wise. because if it was gunna be based off the toys. Then it would have been called the Deacons movie.....And then why get Peter Cullen to do Optimus Primes voice and Why the hell is Frank Welker not doing Megatrons voice.......For god sake he can still do Freddy Jones on Scooby Doo but can't do Megatron....Thats bullcrap and a mighty big pile at that. The first movie was entertaining the first time  I watched it. They should call the series The movie where humans talk for 2 hours with playful not funny banter plus Robots that fight others Robots for a half hour but you wont know who's fighting who unless you go by the raging Stereotypes. But, I guess that to long to fit on  a poster.   Oh and to answer the question of why ROTF was bad....Devastator has Testicles. "
Calm the fuck down. I am right. The movie is based on a toy line. The toys came out before the cartoon. The cartoon was based on a toy line. If the movie is based on the cartoon...it's still based from a toy line. As the toy line was the original. Shut the fuck up and stop being such a brash wanker. You're the one who obviously lacks "some kinda thought process"

@MrCipher: I was saying it to make a point... I think it's obvious it wouldn't be made if it wasn't for the cartoon. But for something that originated from a toy line...
 
I thought it was fairly obvious the point I was making.
 
All I'm saying is. What can you really expect from something that originated from a toy?

I went to the first two too see giant robots beat the sh*t out of each other, if they have that, I'll see it. Like I can honestly expect anything better from ADD inducin' Micheal Bay.

Why do they keep Megan in the transformer movies?  She didn't need to be in the last one.  I seen Jennifers body and I think she looked better when she turned into the monster. It reflects her real person.

i hope they get rid of those two twin autobots. I hated those with a passion, they made me want to get up and leave the movie theater. I want action from the robots, if i want comedy i will want it as snide remarks from the human characters, if the robots do something funny it should be as if on accident or if they are learning and they do it wrong (bumble bee spraying lubercant on the officer)

I wouldn't be bothered if Megan Fox wasn't in the film. I'd still follow Shia. He's one of my favourite actors.

@Luthorcrow: I for one liked the second transformers and thought it was good and just because critics think it was a bad movie doesn't mean everyone thinks it's one. Everyone has their own opinion and when people judge people because of their opinion like that it's not cool because everyone see's things differently so you can't say like "oh you have to be kidding me" because they might find it good. And for example, that movie Paul Blart: Mall Cop didn't it get like 2 or 1.5 stars for some critic and it ended up being a really good movie and it was voted #1 movie of all times or something like that.
